It felt for some time that Eberechi Eze would be a Tottenham player eventually, when suddenly Eze was signing for Spurs' biggest rival Arsenal. So how did it all go down?

Arsenal have agreed a fee of close to £68 million ($92m) with Crystal Palace for midfielder Eberechi Eze, sources have told ESPN.

Arsenal were linked with Eze at the start of the window, but things became quiet on that front in recent weeks. That’s when Tottenham stepped up and tried to sign him, but David Ornstein has now revealed that Eze kept asking people around him and his teammates if they knew anything about Arsenal’s interest in him.
